UUCR Green Sanctuary Charter
Authorization Chairperson Membership Meetings Budget Goals
The UUCR Board authorized a standing Green Sanctuary Committee in May 2005 and requested that
a UUCR GS committee be formed and that they select a chair among the members.
The chairperson serves a one year term renewable at the discretion of the
President and the committee. The chairperson is responsible for accomplishing the goals, tasks, and activities of Green Sanctuary,
submitting reports, and making presentations. The chairperson coordinates with the UUCR staff, officers, committee chairpersons,

the congregation to act as project officers and participants.
UUCR members and friends may volunteer for Green Sanctuary Committee membership. Green Sanctuary
